FAQs
Are these tweeters compatible with factory head units?
While technically connectable, these are designed for high-performance audio systems and may not reach their full potential without an external amplifier.
Do I need a crossover for the RTX4BTs?
Yes, a crossover or a properly configured electronic high-pass filter is essential to prevent low frequencies from damaging the tweeter.
Can these be installed in the dash?
They can be installed in custom dash enclosures, provided there is enough depth and a secure mounting surface.
How do I clean the tweeter?
Use a dry, soft brush to remove dust. Avoid using any liquid cleaners, as they may damage the diaphragm material.
What does SQL mean?
SQL stands for Sound Quality Loud, referring to systems that prioritize high-fidelity sound even when playing at high volume levels.
Troubleshooting
Distorted sound at high volumes
Check your amplifier's high-pass filter settings and increase the crossover frequency to ensure the tweeter is not receiving low-frequency signals.
No sound output
Verify all wiring connections to the amplifier and the crossover, and ensure the amplifier channel is correctly configured.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, verify that your current amplifier has sufficient high-pass filter capabilities to protect the tweeter from low-frequency signals that could cause damage. During setup, use high-quality, properly gauged speaker wire to maintain signal integrity. For care, avoid using liquid cleaners on the tweeter dome; instead, use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently remove any accumulated dust. Ensure that the tweeter is mounted in a stable, vibration-free location to prevent rattling and to maintain sound stage accuracy.
